htmx 0.0.6 Release

I'm pleased to announce the 0.0.6 release of htmx.

Changes

_hyperscript

With this release comes the release of a new sibling project:

https://hyperscript.org

hyperscript is a scripting language designed to be embedded directly in HTML and inspired by HyperTalk, the programming language of HyperCard.

You can see how hyperscript and htmx work together in the docs.

Breaking Changes

• Custom request/response headers no longer start with the X- prefix, which is no longer recommended
• The X-HTTP-Method-Override is now part of the method-override extension, and AJAX requests use the actual http method specified for requests.
• Extensions that handle swaps must explicitly return an array of elements to process after the swap
• The hx-error-url attribute was removed in favor of hyperscript

Other Changes

• empty verb attributes are now allowed and follow the anchor tag semantics (e.g. <div hx-get></div>)
• nunjuks inline rendering is now supported in the client-side-templates extension
• the new ajax-header extension includes the X-Requested-With header
• bad JSON is now handled more gracefully
• hx-swap="none" will cause no swap to take place https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/issues/89
• hx-trigger now supports a throttle modifier https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/issues/88
• the focused element is preserved if possible after a replacement
• perf improvements for large DOM trees with sparse hx- annotations
• general bug fixes

Enjoy!
